Colombia's one-two punch of James Rodriguez and Carlos Bacca combined wonderfully on a corner kick during Tuesday's Group A match against Paraguay, with the Real Madrid man sending a perfectly placed cross for Bacca to head home with pace and power.
Colombia's last 5 #CopaAmerica goals have come from set pieces: penalty, free kick, corner, penalty, corner. #Copa100 #COLvPAR

The goal gives Colombia a 1-0 lead and, should Los Cafeteros hold that lead, they would reclaim the top spot in Group A now occupied by the United States following the host side's 4-0 win over Costa Rica earlier in the day.
